you must not have ever raced a car before...... automatics arent much slower and are MUCH easier to run at a track. usually resulting in better times.

lmao- you took out the passenger and rear seats. did anyone think to pull out the spare tire in your trunk?
toss a CAI on, get the nitrous, get exhaust pipes with a larger diameter, get straighter exhausts. swap back to the smaller wheels, fill your tires with nitrogen instead of O2, get your computer changed to shorten the shift delays, get a Shiftplus kit, learn how to break launch

that will get rid of weight, add fuel-air efficiency, and make that automatic into a strength instead of a weakness. All of this will be (comparatively) inexpensive. If you want to get into cost, work on forced-injection of some kind. for you and me, it's gonna be a supercharger since we don't have the tuning for a turbo.

or you can buy an SS like we should've done, and then do all that stuff to it...
